the lawyers are going to end up with all or almost all of the money.
Isn't it just beautiful?
Any adult whose above the age of 30 can see that this lolsuit is retarded and will have long lasting impacts that we've yet to foresee
People keep harping on about the precedent this is going to set, but I'm not so sure about that. Remember, trial-level verdicts aren't precedential, only appellate-level rulings. And I don't see any novel/unsettled legal issues being raised here that would justify appellate intervention, just a question of the application of the facts to the factors, and that's highly unlikely to get de novo review.

They aren't binding authority, but they are often persuasive authority. There are also unusual areas where often the leading case is something from a district or even a magistrate judge. Discovery issues are one example, because it's fairly rare for there to be an important appellate case about discovery.

One of the leading cases, Zubulake v. UBS Warburg had several opinions by District Judge Shira Scheindlin of the Southern District of New York that were so influential they were actually largely incorporated into the FRCP in the 2006 revisions, and appear in most civil procedure textbooks to this day.

This goes back null case meme being used in supreme court for deciding cut internet from copyrigh offenders. If this h3g3 case hits appeal court o boy.
I believe beyond strengthen the dmca/copyright this will be another tool to de annoymize user from forums.

And while technically it's not binding even on judges in the same district, it's more persuasive when a district court judge issues a novel ruling on this type of issue and then the issue appears again in the same district. Other judges know that judge personally, and the binding law is the same. And this is in the Central District of California, a/k/a Los Angeles, where many content creators and media companies are domiciled. It's the ideal place for some persuasive authority on content creation, unlike if this were in the District of Nebraska or even a very populated district like Northern District of Illinois (Chicago), Southern District of Texas (Houston), or Southern District of Florida (Miami).
 
Was going to say this, I don't think shes the picture of beauty or anything but shes doing a hell of a lot better in that department than the 3 smelly whores H3s suing.
Even if she wasn't close to being attractive Hila is basically the perfect wife. Gave Ethan kids, helped him start a business and has unequivocally supported him throughout his darkest times including (and worst of all) being fat.

Putting her in the same sentence as bitches like Denims or Frogan who would never work to build anything nor support anyone else that they wouldn't just throw under a bus the first sign of a problem is a crime against humanity, as close to jews come to being human anyway.

Or the one-judge Galveston Division, at least since Samuel Kent's fall from grace.
 
Also expect twitch to activate poison pill measure when ethan wins. (My guess is ban on react content & youtube & copyrighted work on twitch)
If they didn't ban titty streamers, they aren't going to ban react streamers. Besides, actual game streamers are one minor legal distinction away when it comes to copyright, they can't give up that much ground.

This is actually an interesting intersection of concerns, the difference between static published works and live streams. It's easier to run copyright detection on static videos, but harder for live streams as they happen. In fact it might be impossible, because a live stream is theoretically always on the verge of becoming fair use, depending on what the streamer does next. I don't know if you can even legally apply fair use analysis on a work while it is being produced, it probably has to be "finished" first.

This lawsuit could cause Twitch to start applying YouTube style video scanning against VODs. In fact they recently restricted the amount of VODs a streamer could have (I think to 100 hours), so that would make it more feasible for them.
 
everyone on here suddenly going full pro kike just out of spite
was your first hint nearly everyone saying 'I hate ethan, HOWEVER' ?

this isnt that complicated, no one here likes him they just hate hasan and co. more. retards eating each other is good entertainment. this doesnt mean anyone actually likes ethan all of a sudden.

Maybe not fully like, as he has a lot of stupid opinions, but for me, I'll put it like this:

Ethan and Hila seem like overall alright people, and would probably be fun to have a beer with, as long as the conversation doesn't go towards politics.

Hasan and all those other people I wouldn't want to be in the same state as them, and it's bad enough I share a country with them. They're all psychopaths and creepy as fuck.

I mean given that Denims have an OF
I thought to myself "Surely she doesnt need that much money for legal defence because she has an OF"
then you check out her OF and its all just images of herself with that weird dead eyed smile she has.

God. how does anyone even spend money for her OF Content?
 
Why skulls? Why spend $2000+ or rent skulls? Just send him a bag of gummy dicks or something like that as a fuck you.
You ever know acted with a radical left wing psychopath in real life? I have a few times, not pleasant people. even if they have doctorates and work a good job, they'll all completely deranged. So yes, I wouldn't put it past some sort of radical Hassan Pico fantasy and literal skulls, which can be interpreted as a death threat. to Ethan Klein.

Honey, I think the left of the past two years has been more time shooting at each other than the radical right.
 
Someone mentioned "Kuihman" previously in this thread and it rang a bell, I see this guys reactions come up on my feed every now and then so I watched his video on this situation. Is this guy a spastic or something?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91vq92GQDrM

His whole contention is Ethan is a making a litigious/political attack on people and that it might ruin the "victims" lives, and that people who agree with Ethan are morally wrong. God I hate people like this, these scum have been actively harassing this guy for over a year now, trying to label him as evil, baby killer, calling CPS etc while being actively protected by Twitch and mainstream media and Kuihmans mad at him for trying to fight back? what a fucking cuck. Its the most pathetic purity testing that the far-left and progressives have been doing for a decade. If someone broke into this retards house and started stealing stuff, Kuihman wouldn't do anything because he might hurt the criminal and that's morally wrong guys.

Ethan took extra steps, made a long ass video, went and got it copyrighted specifically to catch a few retards out. Its actually a high IQ and entertaining plan that made good content. Not just some runt in the corner of the screen giving his dog shit takes on whats going on.

And whats worse is the idiots who fell for the trap explicitly say they are trying to take views from Ethan.

Kuihman if you're reading this, no one gives a fuck about a sub 10k channel that watches 8 hours a day of no bodies arguing online, no ones going to sue you, your little "profession" is safe. You and your community are the equivalent of people shaving coins down in the dark ages, you leach off other peoples hard work, you are a cyber jew.

Why do people use the cps/skulls as a defense for Ethan copyrighting his videos to sue people because those happened after he had already filed for a copyright, he set this plan in motion long before any of that happened. Sure it may have played a part in actually going through with it. copyright filed jan/2025, cps march/2025, skulls shortly after cps.

Ethan got the idea of copyrighting his video from dan saltman, destinys ghislaine maxwell, ethan is very involved with destiny/dan satlman behind the scenes and if you look at the h3 subreddit it has been taken over by destinys foot soldiers, they are as we speak trying to rehab destinys image by using h3.




imo when it comes to who actually has a chance of being impactful/intertwined in political discussions it's destiny, hasan has no chance in hell being involved with any political party because hes one step removed from being classified as a domestic terrorist and deported meanwhile even with the revenge porn lawsuits democrats are still wanting to work with destiny, this is destinys plan its to get his lawsuit tossed and then tell everyone it was a frivolous lawsuit to try to rehab his image and continue to collab with prominent democratic members. So I consistently position myself against destiny and anyone who helps him rehab his image, including ethan which i would bet there's a high chance you will see destiny on H3 in the future as a guest, they are already sponsored by redact which is owned by dan saltman. That's my main gripe with people propping up ethan because if we have learned anything hes a backstabbing pos and will betray anyone as soon as it benefits him more to do so, he will use this support to fuck everyone over.

Kuihman has pretty balanced takes when you factor in the rest of the commentary community and his prior coverage on destiny, most of the commentary community swept for destiny until it was a determent to do so.

That's kuihmans whole gripe with the situation, he's calling out other content creators hypocrisies when they themselves are liable to DMCA/copyright infringement,



When it comes to content creators suing each other i actually think more should be sued lol, and if you want to be a copyright warrior then stick to your guns and advocate for just about every single commentary retard to be sued, they all steal content and it would be funny if this led to a lolsuit war between creators, most of them are too rich anyways.

For the record, even streaming yourself playing a video game is technically copyright infringement, so content creators morally grandstanding over protecting a rich guy or a corporations copyright is retarded. I guess let them cannibalize themselves.

Also, I don't know why people read UP TO $150,000 and think its automatically a $150,000 judgment, even with most criminal charges outside mandatory minimums its for example UP TO 5 years and $25,000 fine except people walk away with a slap on the wrist with probation and a small meaningless fine for first time offenders. Suddenly everyones a lawyer... fucking retards

I want to see where this goes and if it actually does affect fair use, I also want to see if the actual copyright itself will be challenged since ethan used clips from other content creators some being from the people hes suing. ik its a debate of REACT HARDER RETARD and ethan may have reacted hard enough to justify fair use to copyright other peoples content but we will just have to wait and see, this will take years regardless if those being sued decide to challenge it. Imo as ethan has made it clear this is just to cause pain to those he feels wronged by and a bulk of that lawsuit is probably going to be stricken from the record as its irrelevant, the bones of the lawsuits are the copyright claim not the other stuff just thrown in there, this will change nothing in the grand scheme of things. For example, he's suing kaceytron... wtf is that going to change except how much weed she consumes.

I struggle to understand how any normal person could give a single fuck about this.

Ethan Klein, a wealthy slopfag, is suing less wealthy slopfags for biting his slop. These are all leeches on society who produce nothing of actual material value, and the outcome of this slopsuit will have zero effect on anybody who isn't also a slopfag that makes "online content" drivel.

I hope they all go broke and then kill themselves. Podcasters and Twitch streamers are subhuman.

My problem isnt with the actual dates of what happened, my problem is these retarded fuckwits run rampant on Twitch spewing some of the most disgusting and harmful ideologies to teenagers who don't understand they are being indoctrinated and will likely lead them down a path in life that is irreversible (not always). It appears to turn perfectly reasonable people into legit communists who seem to have no other hobby than trying to destabilize a functioning society that 80% of the population rely on and try their hardest to preserve, as it has led to roughly 70 years of relative peace. (its not perfect, but I dont want to send myself or my children into hell, be it a mine, gulag or war)

Ethan did get involved with it but was able to stop and look at what these people were saying. Then they all ganged up and have been bullying him for over a year.

When it comes down to it, I dont actually care about Ethan either. But any chance someone can take a chunk of flesh off of these idiots I celebrate.
